## About

We believe in every child’s potential and right to make excellent progress, through quality first teaching, motivational learning experiences and relevant, exciting curriculum. We also believe in developing the whole child, so personal & social progress and skills are developed with as much importance and rigour attached to them, as the academic areas of learning.

## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Our child's progress has been outstanding: My child has made significant progress in both their academic and personal development since joining Village Primary Academy. The accelerated reader program has been particularly beneficial, and I've been impressed with the variety of after-school clubs on offer. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is that I wish there were more opportunities for parental involvement in decision-making. *(Mar 2023)*
- **5/5** — A Fantastic Academy: I'm absolutely thrilled with Village Primary Academy. The staff are friendly and supportive, and my child loves attending Forest School. I've seen a significant improvement in their social skills and confidence since starting here. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Good all-round education: We moved our child to Village Primary Academy from a different school, and we've been impressed with their inclusive values and varied curriculum. The nursery and pre-school facilities are also excellent. However, we did experience some issues with communication with teachers, which prevented us from giving 5 stars. *(Jun 2020)*
